Re: AR System 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 Upgrade Effort Estimates
Yes. This is a known limitation of how the ITSM installers do their step upgrade - i.e. even though you're moving from one version to another, what's actually happening internally is that it's doing the upgrade of each smaller step between the two. The more steps (i.e. versions) between the two, the longer it will take. There are some other factors involved, but in a nutshell, yes - it's known. There is are technologies being introduced with AR System 7.6.03 that will enable the installers to become more streamlined in the future and to generally run more efficiently. So it is BMC's expectation that future versions will upgrade much more expediently. -David J. Easter Sr. Product Manager, Enterprise Service Management BMC Software, Inc.

Re: AR System 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 Upgrade Effort Estimates
I meant how much data was in the db, wondering how many hours the actual ITSM upgrade itself would take (not the other work involved). We have already planned 6 months for the overall effort.

Re: AR System 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 Upgrade Effort Estimates
Tim, Was your test environment a good representation of the production environment? By this I'm mostly referring to the number of objects in the CMDB and/or ARS DB. I'm just curious on what size your data set was for your test. This is important in estimating the time it would take to complete the upgrade in a fully functional production environment. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Re: AR System 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 Upgrade Effort Estimates
Jiri, I've done a similar upgrade from ARS 7.1 to 7.5.3 and CMDB 2.1 to 7.6. You'll should do this in phases. Better check the upgrade path from 7.0.1 to 7.5, I've had to first do the necessary patches (pereqs) before I could upgrade ARS to 7.5.3. Plus the necessary patches for CMDB and ITSM before you go to 7.6. In a SQL 2005 environment which was server grouped, it took about 3 hours to do the necessary patching of ARS and CMDB and ITSM (IM/PM/CM/SLM). To do the jump to ARS 7.5.3 (at a later date) it took about an hour, actually it was less than that, but once you take account for backup and testing and everything else included in an implementation plan. The jump to CMDB 7.6.1 took about 3 hours. ITSM 7.6 upgrade took about 5 hours on a VM sandbox with 4GB of RAM and a 2.0 processor. Haven't rolled out to production yet. You should also rollout the 7.5.x WUT. For developers, you will need to familiarize yourself with the new Developer Studio. As for EndUser training, you can choose NOT to use the Best Practice Views until you have trained them accordingly. That should give you a rough estimate. Hope that helps.
